Come To Me caps fine day for Mullins

Come To Me completed a fine day for champion trainer Willie Mullins when giving him his sixth winner across the two meetings in the concluding bumper at Punchestown.
The four-year-old debutant was the fourth on the card at the Kildare venue with two winners also down in Cork.
Patrick Mullins had the 7/2 shot to the fore throughout in the two-miler and he quickened well when asked for an effort over a furlong from home.
The son of Spanish Moon galloped on strongly in the closing stages to record a four-and-three-quarter length success.
"He's a half-brother to Sweet My Lord and that's why we bought him,” said Mullins.
“I look forward to running him in a winners bumper in the New Year. I'm happy with that, and our bumper horses seem to be decent enough."
Paddy Power introduced the winner at 25/1 for the Cheltenham Bumper
